7 4 Claims. 1

This invention pertains in general to binding machines, and itparticularly relates to a machine for use in' the floral industryin thebinding and stemming of artificial flowers. It is not, however, limitedto this use, and it may be used in any in dustry to which its functionsare adaptable.

The general object of the invention is a binding particularlyserviceable in the stemming and binding of artificial flowers, and whichis compact, light, and possessed of a high degree of efficiency andeconomy of operation.

A more particular object of the invention is a machine useful instemming and binding artificial flowers with either, chenille cord,threading, or tie-wire as desirecL'and without breakage of the bindingmaterial during the process.

Another object of the invention is a binding machine hating a highlyefiicient feeding arrangeme'nt.

A further object is the provision in a floral stemming and bindingmachine of a universal supply reel leveling and tensioning means. 7

A still further object of the invention is a stabilizing unit in abinding machine that will stabilize the wire feeding operation of themachine.

The invention lies not only in its various features, but also in thecombination of its features and in the particular arrangement of itsvarious parts, all of which results in a highly productive, eflicientand. light-weight machine with a minimum of parts to accomplish suchresults.

In general the machine of the present invention comprehends a nozzlehead or spinner adapt-1 ed for spinning action through suitable drivemeans connected to a motor. Spinning of the nozzle head effects throughvarious gears and tensioning means automatic feeding through the nozzlehead of suitable floral support means or stemming, such as wire. Thestem wire is drawn from a supply reel into suitable guides through thenozzle head. Upon exit of the stem wire from the nozzle head artificialflowers and the like are manually fed to it. Suitable binding material,such as chenille cord, threading, or tie-wire, initially twisted to thestem wire issuing from the nozzle head to start the binding operation,is thereafter automatically drawn in the binding operation from supplyspools bracketed on the spinningnozzle head. Stabilizer means, such asan elongated tube in the nozzle head centers and steadies the stem Wireas it issues from the nozzle head and thereby facilitates the feeding offloral sprays to it. As the nozzle head spins and the stem wireautomatically issues forth from the elongated tube, the binding materialis automatically drawn from its spools as it Wraps itself about the stemwire, and in the wrapping process it binds to the stem wire any floralsprays placed upon the wire. Suitable means is also provided in themachine to permit automatic coating of the stem wire with glue beforethe wrapping or sheathing operation, the effect of which results insecurely holding the binding material thereon. Suitable guide means isprovided at the mouth or exit end of the nozzle head serving to guidethe binding material to the stem wire and to prevent its entanglementwith the nozzle head. The guide means is of particular importance inthat it enables the machine to uilize either thread, tie-wire, orchenille cord as binding material, and particularly chenille cordwithout breakage.

The foregoing objects, as well as others, together with the variousadvantages of the machine, will become apparent as this specificationunfolds in greater detail and as it is read in conjunction with theaccompanying drawings wherein a specific embodiment of the invention isillustrated.

In the detailed description to follow, reference is directed to thevarious views of the drawings so as to permit a clear understanding ofthe invention.

The various parts of the machine are supported upon a base or casting I,which is provided with bosses 2 on its undersurface. These are providedwith internal thread 3 adapted to receive bolts, not shown, whereby themachine may be secured to a workbench. Extending upright from theforward end of the base is a frame member 4 adapted to carry a tubularstub shaft 5 on one end of which is suitably mounted for axial rotationa nozzle head or spinner member 3. Shaft 5 is rigidly secured at one endby a set screw 1 in the frame member 4. Release of the set screw permitsready removal of the stub shaft 5 with its associated nozzle head.

The nozzle head, preferably of a light metal such as aluminum, comprisesa snout portion or nozzle 9, about one end of which and an integral partthereof extends a circular flanged portion or disc member ID. Extendingaxially into the nozzle head through the flanged end for a shortdistance is a bore H at the interior end of which is a shoulder l2. BoreH is adapted to accommodate a short sleeve piece I4 that abuts againstthe shoulder I2. The forward end of shaft 5 is press fitted into thesleeve piece I4. The shaft and sleeve piece are heremade up in separateparts for economy of manufacture only. A suitable bearing or bushing l5force fitted into the bore and abutting lightly against the short sleevepiece l4 serves to secure the shaft 5 in the nozzle head and also actsas a bearing for the nozzle head as it spins about the shaft. Thearrangement and fit of the shaft 5 and bearing 15 in the bore H is suchas to permit rotation of the nozzle head upon the shaft without anyunnecessary loose movement. A set screw i6 serves to further secure theshort sleeve piece i4 and the shaft 5 together, and it is adapted to beset from a hole H in the nozzle portion 9.

The bore I! in the nozzle head communicates with a larger bore I3extending through the nozzle portion 9. The larger bore l8 tapers downat its inner end so as to form the shoulder [2. This enlarged bore isuniformily wide throughout and serves to materially lighten the metalnozzle head.

Drive and feed The flange circular portion m of the nozzle head isprovided with a pulley groove 20 in its periphery that is adapted tocarry a belt 2| connected to a suitable motor M. Upon actuation of themotor the drive belt serves to rotate or spin the nozzle head.

The machine is provided with stem wire feed mechanism which is geared insuitable manner to the nozzle head, so that spinning of the nozzle headautomatically causes the feed mechanism to function.

Extending rearwardly on the left side of the machine in Fig. l is arotatable drive shaft 23, the foreward end of which is suitably carriedin a short upright portion 24 of the casting along side of the uprightmember 4. The rearward end of the drive shaft is suitably carried in alug 2t integral with the base casting. On the forward end of the driveshaft which extends through the upright 24 is mounted fast a large drivegear 2? which is in constant mesh with a smaller gear 23 mounted fastand concentrically upon the rear face 22 of the nozzle head (Figs. 1,6). Gears 2?, 28 are preferably of fibre material. A stop 29 tightenedon the rearward end of shaft which end extends through the lug 26, notonly maintains the proper meshing of the gears 2?, 28, but also upon itsrelease permits a ready disassembly of the several associated parts, asuitable washer bearing 30 separates the stop 29 from the lug 26.

Mounted intermediately of shaft 23 is a worm gear 3! constantly in meshwith a gear 32 Whose peripheral surface is concaved to insure a great r.4 surface meshing with the worm 3|. Gear 32 is mounted fast upon theleft end of a cross shaft 33 that is carried for rotatable movement in ahousing 34. An oil cup 35 serves in keeping the shaft 33 lubricated.Housing 34 is provided with a depending tongue piece 36 which fits in atrough 3'! (Figs. 4, '7), formed by a pair of lateral uprights 38extending from the surface of the base I. Housing 34 is held fast in ahorizontal position by a pair of bolts 39 through the upright members 38and a pair of slots 40 in the intermediate tongue piece 36. Slots 40 aredesired in the tongue piece as they permit the housing 34 to beadjustably raised or lowered to insure a suitable meshing of gear 32with its worm at all times.

The right end of cross shaft 33 extends somewhat through the housing 34.On this end there is rigidly carried for rotatable movement with theshaft a thick disc or feed wheel 43, the peripheral surface 44 of whichis knurled or notched. Upon rotation of cross shaft 33, consequent withthe turning of the nozzle head 5 and the intermediate gearing, feedwheel 43 is adapted to revolve and draw, in combination with suitabletensioning means, stem wire 45 from a supply reel 43, the wire and reelbeing shown in outline in Fig. l. The supply ree1 is carried forrotation on a shaft 41 fixed in and projecting from the upper end of arearwardly and upwardly extending bar 43, the forward and lower end ofwhich bar is secured to the surface of the casting 1.

Stem wire 45 from the supply reel is adapted to be carried over theknurled wheel 43, through the tubular nozzle head shaft 5 and out of thenozzle head mouth. Tensioning means serves to constantly press the stemwire into contact with the knurled surface 44 of the feed wheel, so thatwith the rotation of the feed wheel the stem wire will be gripped by itand carried over it to the nozzle head.

The tensioning means, Figs. 1, 4, '7, comprises a thick wheel 59 havinga smooth peripheral surface and pivoted at the side of the forward endof a bar lever 53. Lever 53 pivots or fulcrums between the forked arms54 of an upright casting member 55. A heavy spring 58 is compressedbetween the rearward portion of the lever bar and the casting. Thespring is held from slipping its position by a lug 51 of the lever barextending axially for a short distance into the spring, and by a recess58 in which the lower end of the spring is contained.

The heavy spring constantly tensions lever 53 clockwise, Fig. 1, so asto keep the tensioning wheel 53 constantly pressed down against theperiphery of the feed wheel. In this arrangement the stem wire 45 whenintermediately of the feed and tension wheels will be constantly grippedby the knurled surface 44 and enabled to be drawn forward as the feedwheel rotates.

The right and left side faces "59 of the feed wheel are slightly raisedabove the intermediate knurled portion as in a bobbin, so as to preventthe stem wire from escaping over the sides. The tension wheel is adaptedto be contained between the raised sides 59 and pressed upon the knurledperiphery 44. Downward pressure upon the rearward portion of lever 53permits raising the tension wheel from the feed wheel for adjustment ofthe stem wire and other purposes.

Supply reel leveling and tensioning means Stem wire is automaticallyunwound from the supply reel in the process of being drawn through thetension and feed wheels. It often happens that different manufacturersprovide reels with varying size axial openings so that for good re=sults the reel support shaft 41 would ordinarily have to be changed eachtime to one of a proper diameter in order to properly carry the reel. Aloose or unleveled reel would interfere with the proper operation of themachine through snag= ging and entanglements. The reel must be properlyleveled upon its shaft and tensioned only to that extent required topermit it to rotate with the pull of the stem wire being drawn from itby the feed wheel. To accomplish this effect, universal reel levelingand retaining means is provided on the reel shaft 41 whereby any difficulty associated with oversize reels is eliminated, and reels of variousaxial openings may be properly carried.

Axially slideable upon reel shaft 4! is a pair of conical members 60,carried on the shaft in opposed relation to one another with theirtapered portions 63 facing each other. Between the support bar 48 andthe broad face 6| of the nearest conical member is a compression spring62. It is to be noted that the conical members taper downwardly directlyto the reel shaft 41. In this construction, representing an importantfeature of the invention, reels with axial openings of various sizes maybe suitably carried. In the assembling process a reel is placed upon theshaft with the tapered ends 83 of the conical members extending fromeither side into its axial opening thereby leveling the reel. The outerconical member 64 is drawn up against the reel to compress the spring 62until the reel is at its desired tension. A set screw 65 in the outerconical member is then tightened so as to secure it to the reel shaft,and thereby retain the ad justed position of the several parts ontheshaft.

To properly conduct the stem wire 45 from the supply reel to the tensionand feed wheels, a suitable guide is provided in the form of anelongated piece 65 mounted vertically uponthe casting i and providedwith an eye or guide hole 5'5 for the passage therethrough of the sternwire to the tension and feed wheels immediately ahead (Figs. 1, 4).

The glue boa:

Suitable means is here provided for coating the stem Wire with glueafter it leaves the feed Wheel and before it enters the nozzle headtubular shaft. The means provided here (Figs. 1,- 4), is in the form ofa receptacle or box 69 adapted to hold glue. and provided at its rightwith a flange 10 by which it is bolted at M to the side of the uprightframe member 4, and whereby the box is rigidly held in position by thefeed wheel 43 and the entrance to the nozzle head tubular shaft 5. Theglue box carries for rotatable movement between its side walls a crossshaft E3 inter mediately of which there is rigidly mounted a pulleywheel 16, the groove of which is adapted to receive the stem wire as ittravels from the feed wheel to the nozzle head. A firm spring Wire Tlfixed at 18 to a side of the glue box serves to hold down and retain thetravelling stem wire in the groove of the wheel. The arrangement is suchthat as the glue wheel is rotated it dips in the glue of the box andcarries the glue up to the overhead stem wire, the latter picks it up,automatically coating itself with glue as it travels through the grooveof the glue wheel.

The glue wheel is carried about by its shaft 13 which is automaticallydriven by a sprocket and chain arrangement connected with. an extension:beyond the feed wheel at: the right side of the cross shaft- 33. Asprocket 8B is rigidly mounted on the extended shaft 33. Sprocket islinked by a chain 83 to another sprocket 84 secured fast upon aprojecting end of the glue wheel shaft 13. The arrangement is such thatrotary motion of the shaft 33 is automatically conveyed by the sprocketsand chain to the glue wheel shaft.

As the glue coated stem wire issues from the nozzle head it is ready forstemming with artificial decorations, such as floral sprays 81 (Figs. 9,10). These are bound to the stem wire by suitable means, such aschenille cord, thread, or tie-wire. To enable this the flat marginalface 88 on the forward side of the flanged portion of the nozzle head 6is provided with a pair of brackets 89 adapted to carry spools 85, shownin outline in Figs. 1 and 4, of the binding material;

Spool brackets Spool brackets 89 are a feature of this invention, andgreatly add to the general efficiency of the machine. This is dueprimarily to the peculiar tensioning means associated with the bracketwhereby a spool may be adjusted upon the bracket and resiliently heldthereon with the proper amount of tension. This floating resilience ofthe binding material spool is vitally important, in that it serves toeliminate breaking of the binding material issuing from the spool in theprocess of sheathing the stem wire. It also permits a sheathing orwrapping of the binding material about the stem wire that is not tootight. Where this resilience is lacking the stem wire becomes tightlybound, resulting in distortion and frequent breaking of the bindingmaterial during the sheathing process.

Each spool bracket 88, Figs. 1, 4, 6, 8, has a frame portion 90 wherebythe bracket is bolted to the forward face 88 of the nozzle head discportion 10. A pair of opposed arms 52, 93 extend substantially at rightangles from the opposite ends of the frame portion. Slideable in arm 92of each bracket is a bolt or shaft 94 which is limited in the extent ofits sliding movement by its knurled head 95. The bolt serves as an axialsupport for a spool of binding material. The other end of the bolt 94 isthreadedly received in the core of a spool member 96. This member iscarried for slideable movement in the opposite arm 53 of each bracket,and is limited in its sliding movement by its flanged sides 91. A pin 99through the arm 93 and playing in a slot If") of the spool acts as aguide for the spool in its sliding movement and also prevents rotationor loosening of the spool on the bolt.

A spring l0! helically contained on the spool and compressible betweenthe bracket arm if; and a side 91 of the spool serves to tension thespool at all times outward. An angularly disposed leaf spring Hi2 fixedat one end to the inner side of bracket arm 92 is provided with anenlarged hole in its free end through which the bolt 94 passes. Thearrangement is such that spools shown in outline 8e of varying lengthsmay be accommodated on the bolts 9 in floating resiliency. After a spoolis axially contained upon the bolt, the bolt is manually threaded intothe core of the bobbin 98. This action draws the bobbin against thetension of its spring toward the spool, and in so doing also draws thespool up against the opposed tensioning of the leaf spring I82. In thismanner all loose play of the spool is taken up and the spool iscontained upon its shaft in floating resiliency, permitting it fullfreedom to unwind as the bind ing material is drawn from it in thebinding operation.

Disc ring guide In the operation of the machine, after the bindingmaterial leaves the spools it is guided to prevent its entanglement withthe nozzle or snout Q of the nozzle head. In Figs. 1, 5, 6, 9, 10, theguide means here is in the form of a disc ring I85 removably securedover the exit end of the nozzle 9 by suitable screws To eliminatebreakage of the binding material through friction a pair of pulleyrollers iii? are mounted in ears its at opposite sides of the ring. Thepulley groove of the rollers is substantially V-shape. By means of therollers and due to their peculiar form friction of the binding materialis virtually eliminated at t is point, and the binding material isreadily drawn from the spools in the binding operation by the stem.wire.

The disc ring is an important feature of this invention, and is ofdecided advantage in the binding operation, particularly where chenillecord 59 or tie wire is used.

Thread material H3 conventionally used the binding of floral sprays mayalso be with the disc ring 5%, but because of its a. strength the discring may be rep cv as appears in Fig. 10. In this case in ring, a pairof holes i it are provided on opposed sides of the nozzle end. To reduce'ction here in the passage of the thread throu grommets HI are provided.This a1- however, would not suffice in the case of chenille cord ortie-wire, as it would through the excessive friction created with themovement of the binding material result in constant breakage of thebinding material. A slot 552 from the outside of the nozzle 9 through tothe hole 6 i facilitates threading of binding material in the hole.

The indentions H29 in the rear face of the disc ring [95 are adapted toaccommodate the groinrnets ill so as to provide a flush fit of the discring over the nozzle end.

Operation of the machine In the operation of the machine a reel ofconventional floral stern wire is first properly tensioned upon the reelshaft ll. The wire is then passed through the eye of the guide and drawnbetween the feed and tension wheels. From here it is carried beneath thespring wire ii and through the groove of the glue wheel and into thetubular shaft 5, from where it is carried through the nozzle head andout of its exit end.

Upon energization of the motor M, pulley belt 2! spins the nozzle head,and through the gearing 2i, 2% the drive shaft 23 is rotated. The latter through the worm ill and gear rotates the feed wheel 43, and throughthe sprockets and chain 83 drives the glue wheel 2'6. Upon turning, theknurled feed wheel in combination with the tension wheel 58 grips anddraws the stem wire from the supply reel and automatically feeds itthrough the tubular shaft 5 and out of the nozzle 9.

Upon issuance of the stem wire from the nozzle 9 the free ends of thebinding material from the spools are first manually twisted about it.Thereafter, spinning of the nozzle head causes the binding material toautomatically wrap it self about the stem Wire and to automaticallyunwind from the spools 8%. The automatic travelling of the stem Wireduring the wrapping process causes a uniform sheathing along the lengthof the stem wire. While this wrapping of the stem wire with bindingmaterial is going on, floral sprays 8! are placed at intervals upon theissuing stem wire and are bound to it in the 10 Wrapping process.

Feed stabilizing mechanism Due to the spinning of the nozzle head therewould be a natural tendency of the stem wire in passing through theenlarged nozzle passage 53 to veer toward the walls of the passage andto issue out of the nozzle 8 in a wide erratic circle. Under suchconditions it would be very difficult to feed floral sprays to it as itwhirls erraticall and the resulting sheathing of the binding materialabout the stem would be poor and irregular. Further, the irregularmotion of the is uing stem wire would cause constant breaking of thehindc in this from the nozzle. With a stabilized and centered travel ofthe stem wire floral sprays can be readily fed to it, and the bindingoperation will be smooth, regular and without breakage.

The stabilizer tube extends substmutially the full length of the nozzlepassage it. Its rear end is adapted to be removably contained in theforward end of the tubular shaft and it is provided with an enlargedportion 325 for this purpose. A set screw it, which is the sam set screwthat secures the short sleeve piece it to the tubular shaft 5, isadapted upon further threading in its socket to press against ts.enlarged portion l l 5 and secure it within the tub-u lar shaft. Theenlarged portion H5 is sufficient in length to permit the stabilizertube to be adjusted, if desired, further into or slightly out of thenozzle. The opening into the stabilizer tube M is flared at its rear endi it; so to eliminate any possible obstruction to the stern wire as itis initially threaded through the nozzle head.
